If he was the player at Man Utd or Everton with the rest of our team, He is still getting 20+ goals. The improvement under Conte is a wonderful bonus. The price we paid? I don't write the checks, if Roman felt strongly to show the money, that is his decision.

I do not have an image but here are the numbers. Moses £4.5m Giroud £1.5m Tomori £26m Guehi £18m Bate £1.5m Simeu £1.5m Livramento £5m Ugbo £5m (TBC) Abraham £34m (TBC) Total £97m + Loan Fees Lukaku fee £97.5m

I think the Haaland comparisons are odd. We offered 130M to start negotiations and there was absolutely no interest to talk. I think our recruitment has been great the last three years. It is possible our people got a read on the Haaland situation they are not going to share. His wage demands might be something that our club will just not do. Rom could be a bad signing, a good signing, a great signing. The best part of it is he does not need to carry this team they way that Kane needs to carry the Spurs. We have quality all around him. I am hopeful, but acknowledge you just never know.

I first seen the Moriba links today. Is he ready to start in the PL? He is young.

Club World Cup might be delayed all the way to 2023.

If we are going to challenge in all comps, everybody will sit at times, including Lukaku. If Lukaku has the form he showed at Inter, we do not have a better number 9.

If he has a bump from moving to a new team, let it be during our first 6 games.

Anybody know why our name is being linked?

He has been frustrated by player acquisition in the past. It is nice to see that because he lets the administration do their job, he is more focused on what he loves to do. I hope this trust continues.

His medical is supposed to be today in Belgium. He could be in by the weekend. Super Cup is going to be without him.

From what I see on twitter he is having his medical on Monday in Belgium.

This is true, we always take forever announcing a player. All the wheels are in motion and Inter are already spending the money.

Interesting There is a lot more

That Zaphod guy hits the nail on the head in that thread. 😆

MC beat me!!

I am excited about the possibility, but with any transfer, you have to wait and see.

A dull game with a nice ending.

When we offered €130M and there was no counter or discussion, it was not going to happen this window.

He asked to be held out of preseason until this was resolved.
